The Child of the Earth is actually a potato. There are multiple Creeping Chrysanthemums and Mamutas which will disturb you if you carry The Child of the Earth back to the pod too early.
Notes
Olimar's journal
“Today, buried in a deep hole, I found a vegetable that I'd never seen before. This dark-dwelling vegetable stores all of its nutritious energy in its roots. The ship named it Child of the Earth, and I think it's fitting.”
Sales pitch
“This plant has grown fat on the blessings of the land. Its nutritional value must be high!”

Trivia
- Although Olimar claims he has never seen a potato before, it is clear that potatoes are known to Hocotatians, given that Louie's notes for the Emperor Bulblax mention the vegetable[1]. It is, however, possible that potatoes on Hocotate are different from those on Earth.
- The name is likely a reference to the French word for potato, pomme de terre, which translates to "apple of the Earth".
References
- ^ “To prep the tongue for cooking, marinate in olive oil and chop into cubes. Stir in a pot with carrots, potatoes, and chives, cover, and simmer over low heat for several hours. Accompany this mouthwatering, rustic stew with a hearty roll.” – Louie in Louie's notes for the Emperor Bulblax
